CALL TO ARTISTS! UNBOUND VOL III

Exhibit: July 26th - September 7, 2013Deadline for Submissions: June 15, 2013
Art Using books as a material/format

This juried show looks to explore this idea of "the book" and all the ways artists use that format as a stepping-off point.

The broad theme of “UNBOUND~VOL III” encompasses all of the possibilities of what we may think or may not think a “book” is. Is it story? An entry to another world? An exploration? What does it indicate? This juried show looks to explore these ideas of “the book” and all the ways artists use its format as a stepping off point or as a material to explore new ideas. Cash Prizes.

Submissions must be postmarked by mail or emailed by June 15, 2013 with $30 entry fee. This show is open to artists 18 and older working in New England and New York. Open to all 2D and 3D, installation, and assemblage artists.

Blog Listing Policy

Vermont Art Zine offers to link to one blog per Vermont artist. Send your request to the addresses above. We reserve the right to remove blogs from this list if they have been without a new post for 6 months. If you use your blog more as a website (that is, you put it up and then more or less leave it, with just occasional updates), ask us to list it under VT Artists instead.

Vermont Artists Listing Policy

We will be happy to link to one website for each Vermont artist. If you have a website and a blog, we will link to one of each. A Vermont artist is someone who resides in the state for more than half the year. Artist websites should be about the visual artwork of the artist. It's OK to sell through your site, but it should be your own work.
